In a landmark clash over land rights, the City of Ekurhuleni's 2019 expropriation of a 34-hectare plot in Driefontein, Boksburg, will head to court as South Africa's first major test of expropriation without compensation. The municipality reportedly seized portion 406 of Driefontein Farm, valued between R30 million and R64 million, to build social housing for landless residents. The municipality allegedly offered the private owner zero compensation in return. Sakeliga CEO Piet le Roux spoke to our Senior producer Ronald Phiri about what their legal challenge entails
